Abiotic and biotic factors influencing host-plant use of a generalist herbivore through plant-mediated interactions: oviposition and larval performance by the bertha armyworm, Mamestra configurata Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on canola
DownloadFall 2018
The bertha armyworm (BAW), Mamestra configurata Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a native, polyphagous herbivore which feeds on a variety of plants in different families. In the Prairie Provinces, canola, Brassica napus L. (Brassicaceae), is a preferred host, making BAW a significant pest....

Active heterotrophic microbial communities from polar desert soils of the Canadian High Arctic
DownloadFall 2012
Polar warming will lead to increased labile organic carbon in Arctic soils, both from the release of organic carbon stored in permafrost and increased plant production. The impact of increasing organic carbon on Arctic soil microbial community composition and activity is of great interest...

In recent times, increased attention has been given to evaluating the efficacy of phage therapy, especially in scenarios where the bacterial infectious agent of interest is highly antibiotic resistant. In this regard, phage therapy is especially applicable to infections caused by the Burkholderia...

After the spill: The mechanisms behind recovery and exposure to flowback and produced waters in Daphnia magna
DownloadFall 2022
Hydraulic fracturing for unconventional oil and gas extraction produces a complex wastewater known as flowback and produced water (FPW). FPW effluents contain inorganic constituents (e.g., Na, Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu, Cl) and organic constituents (e.g., surfactants, proppants, polycyclic aromatic...
